Abstract excerpt
Total GC-content in the platelet phosphofructokinase gene of Zebra Finch (Taeniopygia guttata) is low (37.53±0.51%), while there are short areas (about 300 nucleotides in length) with increased GC-content overlapping its exon 4 and exon 17. GC-content in third codon positions (3GC) of those two exons is equal to 88.42 and 80.00%, respectively, while overall 3GC of the coding region is equal to 49.9%. Similar...
